Claymation Comedy of Horrors?

*gobo* · 01-06-2012, 01:22 AM

For over a decade, I've been knowing that this title appears in thousands of search results when I search "teenage mutant ninja turtles" at the library of congress. Does anyone know why? I never really thought to ask before, but I just ordered the DVD of Claymation Christmas which happens to have this as a b-side. Also, since this was a '93 production, could it have included a segment that was used for the Pizza Crunchabungas commercial? This show was from the guy who brought us The California Raisins, after all.

Anyhow, if no one can answer my questions, I guess I'll just wait 'til the DVD gets here.

Oh! Does anyone recall when the Crunchabungas commercial came out? That would make another fine piece of evidence. ^_^

Yup. I think that blurry vid says ©91, which is supposedly two years prior to the claymation halloween special. So, I suppose that means they probably just used those clay figures for it... maybe?

The Comedy of Horrors was produced in 1991, not 1993. So it was produced the same year as the Crunchabungas.

Forgot to update... Got the DVD. Watched the Halloween ep. Saw no TMNT. Noted it was ©90. Decided it's likely that Mr Vinton just produced the Crunchabungas commercial at the same time. Forgot to post until now. The end.
